Chapter 230

This might be the last public chapter, and it might be on the shelves in the afternoon. I hope everyone can still support Mingming.

The next morning, Zhao Hai followed the plan they had discussed the day before and released two blood eagles. He handed the evil spirit staff to the blood eagles and had them fly directly in the direction of the iron wall fortress.

The ironwall fortress was far away from the black soil wilderness. It would take about half a month to get there by carriage, and about ten days by horse. Of course, this was the normal speed, not the actual journey.

The iron wall fortress was the first line of defense of the Versailles Duchy against the orc grassland. It was also the strongest line of defense. The Versailles Duchy had 20000 elite bull guards stationed there all year round. If the orcs did not send an elite army, even if they sent 100000 troops, they would be able to hold them off for a few days.

The most important thing was that the Versailles family had left behind an Army of mages in the ironwall fortress. This Army of mages could not be called an Army, but a small team. There were a total of 50 mages, and they were all between the fourth and sixth-grades. There were also about 200 mages between the first and third-grades. On the mainland, there were many mages between the first and third-grades, and these mages could only muddle along in some mercenary groups. Their days were not very good. Therefore, they liked to guard the ironwall fortress. The treatment in the ironwall fortress was good, and as long as there was no war, it was very safe.

Although there were not many people in this mage Army and their levels were not high, they could still exert great power in a real war. Ordinary soldiers would not be that powerful. Mages could use some large-scale offensive magic, which was really useful in battle.

For example, an ordinary soldier was like a warrior with a rifle. He could only attack one at a time like a single-shot rifle. A mage was like a machine gun. He could fire continuously and cause mass destruction. That was the difference.

The iron wall fortress was called the iron wall fortress because the bull guards of the Duchy of Versailles had a very glorious record here. They used 50000 men to block the attack of 500000 orcs for half a month. When the reinforcements from the Arkas Empire finally arrived, there were less than 5000 of the 50000 bull guards left, and the entire iron wall fortress had been dyed red with blood.

The bull-sprinting guards became famous after this battle, and the Versailles family also became Grand Dukes after this battle, establishing the current Versailles Duchy.

It could be said that the ironwall fortress was not only famous among the humans, but also among the orcs. Many of the orcs ‘invasion plans had been delayed in front of the ironwall fortress.

Zhao Hai and the others sat in the living room, watching the scenery on the screen. To be honest, Zhao Hai did not know much about the Versailles Duchy. During his time in the Versailles Duchy, he only knew about the situation between Montenegro fortress and Casar city. He knew nothing about other cities.

He could take the opportunity to take a look now. Although he could only take a cursory glance, it was better than nothing.

When the sky turned dark, the blood eagle had already flown out of the Versailles Duchy and officially entered the orc grassland. It was a few hundred miles away from the ironwall fortress, but they had not seen the orc tribe yet. This wasn’t strange. The orcs wouldn’t get too close to the ironwall fortress. If they did, the fortress’s defenders would come out and eliminate them. They were afraid that the orcs were here to spy on them.

The orcs could accept such a situation, just like how the humans couldn’t casually send too many armed personnel into the orc prairies.

Now that they were a few hundred miles away from the iron wall fortress, Zhao Hai recalled the blood eagle. They were ready to set off in a carriage the next day. After all, they had arrived at the orc prairies. If they wanted to do business with the orcs, they could not rely on the Eagle to fly in the sky.

That night, Zhao Hai found some time to improve the soil in the black soil wasteland. Due to the upgrade of the realm, he could improve more land every day. He could improve 1000 mu of land a day, which was not a small number.

However, Zhao Hai was very careful. The soil he improved was all inside the poisonous mist. He did not touch anything outside the mist.

After being irrigated by space water for a long time, those common vegetables outside the iron Mountain fortress had already been ready for harvest. By contrast, those niblets in the canyon of the iron Mountain fortress were going to be ripe.

This was good news for Zhao Hai. Using the space water for irrigation could speed up the ripening of crops, which was very important to Zhao Hai.

Laura was also very busy. She had never been to blackearth wilderness before. Now that she knew that this place would be her home in the future, of course, she started to understand blackearth wilderness.

Only after this did Laura realize how vast the blackdirt wilderness was. This ignited her passion and she began to regulate the entire blackdirt wilderness, preparing to go all out.

Zhao Hai was also impatient with Laura’s enthusiasm. However, he had no choice. Laura was like a child who had just gotten a new toy and was fiddling with it non-stop. If he didn’t let her do it now, she would definitely not agree.

Fortunately, Zhao Hai and the others came out of the medium the next morning. This time, only three people came out with Zhao Hai: Laura, meg, and Nier.

Zhao Hai was naturally happy with the company of three beautiful women. A while ago, when Zhao Hai and Laura confirmed their relationship, meg seemed a little unhappy. However, Zhao Hai was busy at that time and couldn’t have a heart-to-heart talk with her. After that, he didn’t know what Laura had said to meg, but now she was happy. Although Zhao Hai didn’t know why, he was relieved as long as she was happy.

The four of them were now sitting in Laura’s original carriage, which was being pulled by a divine snow horse. Behind their carriage was a large row of other carriages. These carriages were all the property of Laura’s shop. When Laura left, she naturally brought these carriages with her. These things were very useful.

Now that they were going to the orc grassland, these carriages were of course useful. The carriages were all loaded with food. Because they had to travel for a long time, there was not a lot of food. Each carriage weighed 1000 pounds, so there were 50 carriages in total, which was 50000 pounds of food.

Fifty thousand catties of food was not a small amount for a small tribe, but it was not a lot for a mid-sized tribe.

The drivers of the 50 carriages were all undead creatures. Apart from driving the carriages, they could also protect the carriages. The other undead creatures had been thrown into the black soil wasteland by Zhao Hai.

When the four of them appeared on the grassland, they weren’t too surprised because the scenery here was too similar to the one in the origin space. The scenery in the origin space was also a grassland, and it was even more beautiful than the orc grassland. Therefore, the scenery here didn’t attract them too much.

In addition to the undead creatures driving the carriages, Zhao Hai also released 100 blood eagles. These blood eagles weren’t used for attack, but mainly to monitor the surrounding situation. The orc prairies weren’t safe, so it was safer to have the blood eagles watching.

Zhao Hai looked around at the grassland, while meg was looking at Zhao Hai with a hint of infatuation and shyness in her eyes. Seeing Zhao Hai’s expression, meg immediately recalled what Laura had told her two days ago.

Laura realized that after seeing the intimate behavior between her and Zhao Hai that day, Meg’s expression had been very unnatural. The smart Laura immediately understood what was going on. Meg was worried.

Therefore, Laura had a private talk with meg. From Zhao Hai, she knew that Zhao Hai had feelings for meg and would never forget them. Since she had decided to marry Zhao Hai, she naturally hoped that everything would be fine around Zhao Hai and that nothing unpleasant would happen, especially if there was no fire in his backyard.

Now that their Foundation was too weak and they had too many things to do, Zhao Hai didn’t have to do anything if they were to start a fire in their backyard. He could just put out the fire every day.

Therefore, as Zhao Hai’s wife, Laura felt that she had to eliminate this unstable factor in its budding stage. Therefore, she took the initiative to find Meg and had a deep conversation with her.

Laura didn’t say much. She only told meg that Zhao Hai had already told her when he proposed to her that he would marry them, so she didn’t need to worry.

Meg didn’t expect Laura to be so direct, and she felt a little embarrassed. However, she had accepted Laura Long ago, so their relationship had become even better after that time.

The two women loved the same man, so they naturally thought of him. On the ark continent, men were powerful and it was normal for them to have a few wives. They were not jealous, which saved Zhao Hai a lot of trouble.

Zhao Hai did not know about this. To be honest, he was really stupid when it came to relationships. Fortunately, he had a good wife like Laura. Otherwise, it would have been a problem.

It was because of that conversation that the knot in Meg’s heart had been untied, and the last bit of worry in her heart had disappeared, so she was so happy.

For Megger, titles and such were not important. She only wanted to stay by Zhao Hai’s side. Therefore, when she heard Laura say that Zhao Hai would definitely marry her, nothing else was important to her.

Laura also noticed Meg’s reaction, but she didn’t say anything. She just felt a little sour in her heart. She couldn’t help it. Meg had known Zhao Hai earlier than she did, so it was useless even if she was angry. Her heart was already firmly tied to Zhao Hai.

At that moment, the Eagle that Zhao Hai had sent to the East suddenly returned and circled above Zhao Hai’s head. Zhao Hai knew that something was happening in the East.
